In 2009 the Kids' Book Network launched the
idea of free books for every child in the world.
Not just sample educational downloads,
or subscription classroom learning
materials. You can find that stuff all over
the internet.
What KBN introduced was the concept of
real, on-paper, page-turning books, all
for free download, in all of the classic forms
of children's literature. Picture books.
Adventure books. Coloring books. Joke books
Puzzle books. And literary classics.
Even books in new twitter-age forms like
our almost origami-size microbooks.
And of course our KBN books represent the
same quality of books you would expect to
find in a popular bookstore or public library.
So what's ahead for 2010?
from their deep Winter sleep and charge back
to work – get ready for even more free books,
more fresh ideas, more big fun. And as we
recently promised, look for the first of many
more books coming up soon from the best
international authors and illustrators – plus
books in a new format to project and read on
the biggest walls anywhere in the world.
Happy New Year from KBN!
